Queen Anne's Men
Queen Anne's Men re-licensed -- April 15, 1609
Queen Anne's Men -- or, simply, The Queen's Men, came into being when James I was crowned in 1603. Its patron was Anne of Denmark, queen consort to James. The company was formed out of the personnel of two previous companies, Oxford's Men and Worcester's Men. [see F. E. Halliday, A Shakespeare Companion 1564–1964 pp. 535-6] Near the end of the reign of Elizabeth, the short-lived duopoly of the Lord Chamberlain's Men and the Admiral's Men was supplemented by a license (March 31, 1602) for Oxford's Men combined with Worcester's Men to play the Boars Head theater. Later that year they started playing at the Rose as well. The remnants of this combined troupe became the Jacobean-era Queen's Men. On April 15, 1609, the company was formally licensed. - RSB
1609, April 15. Licence for Queen Anne's players (P. R. 7 Jac. 7, pt. 39). also found in T. E. Tomlins, the Shakespeare Society's Papers, iv (1849)

I think that this Queen was the most important Queen in the Great Britain history, so I have not known a lot the royal family of this country.
